Reply To: Ugly horizontal lines…

Ignore the last post, it just can’t be that. Only reason I’ve thrown this out is I don’t get this ellusive 50mm line your refering to but as my old laptop stops printing and freezes only when I run...

Hello everyone, I am seeing a large problem with the Z axis. It appears to be off by quite a bit. I just printed a part that is supposed to be .260″ vertically. It turned out only .158?? This is WAY...

Reply To: Z-axis way off for me…

Can you post a screenshot of the Kudo3D host settings page and the Creation Workshop slicing profile? You should check to see that the Z layer height is exactly the same between the two.Also, what XY...

Reply To: Z-axis way off for me…

Thanks for the responses. I just double checked the slice settings vs the kudo software settings for layer height and they are both set at 0.075mm. I will also redo my zero to see if that helps.James,...

Z-axis compression is just a short way of describing the symptom of the modeling being squished in the Z dimension somehow.There can be several different causes.What I recall seeing described thus far...

ABS Resin Durability

Hello Everyone, I recently purchased a Kudo printer with some of the orange ABS resin. I understood this resin to be more durable like an ABS material. I was just playing with my very first print, and...

Reply To: ABS Resin Durability

Photopolymer resins, in general, will not have as much tensile strength or handle as much deformation as thermoplastics like ABS, PLA, or polypropylene. Resins can be harder (Shore D), more temperature...

Thanks for the response. I know it probably depends on part geometry, but how long should I be curing these parts in the UV chamber?I know photo resin the can handle the stress I am seeing here because...

Reply To: ABS Resin Durability

3DM-ABS doesn’t need much at all. 15 minutes should be fine, 30 if you want to be totally sure.There are some types of resins that do also get harder (which isn’t necessarily stronger, it may be more...
